We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Shoulder Replacement
I do NOT recommend Dr. Justice. He did a shoulder replacement surgery on me and I continued to have major pain. I ended up going to another surgeon who had to repeat the surgery and I was told the replacement part Dr. Justice used was way too big for my shoulder and was disintegrating my shoulder blade. Run away as fast as you can.

I can not recommend Dr. Justice as a surgeon. He was very kind at our appointments and recommended surgery to fix loose ulnar nerves. The only test Dr. Justice did was an MRI. Relying on his professional advice, we decided to operate on both elbows at the same time. It was assumed Dr. Justice would be one doing the surgeries. However, afterwards we found out he supervised at least one and we are still unsure about the other. We learned (the hard way) to always ask who will be doing your surgery. One month after surgery, the elbows “popped” and hurt. We were told it was scar tissue. We went back three times to see him and were told it was anxiety and to give it a year and then come back to see him if they still hurt. The pain was worse than before surgery. We researched and found a Board Certified Hand Surgeon that scheduled an EMG and an ultrasound of both elbows. He found the surgery was done incorrectly and actually made the situation worse. Originally the nerve popped over the small bone in the elbow, after surgery the nerve popped over the larger bone. Had we left the nerve in place, we would be looking at irreversible nerve damage. Thanks to the second surgeon, the corrective surgeries have been successful.

Hip Replacement
The surgery went so well and Dr. justice was attentive to details prior to surgery and after. His staff stayed in contact with me for several days following the surgery. Everyone was so nice and I never felt like a burden or that I was rushed. Great experience!

Dr. Justice was accessible for questions and concerns. He never rushed the visit and made sure any apprehensions my daughter had were addressed prior to the surgery. Excellent care by Dr. Justice and his team!

I put a review on Dr Justice's clinical person named Charlie yesterday. He was quick to offer me pills or a seriod shot(which since 2014 Dr Justice has known I'm diabectic) no thank you. Then offered therapy which I've never heard back. I thought handing out pain medicine was under scrutiny by the federal government and he was openly offering it to me! Wow

Had pain in right shoulder. Had it 20 years earlier. Knew it was my rotator . I was seeing Dr.Walker at the time and she informed me that Dr.Justice did the shoulders. He came in and saw me, set me up for an MRI, and there was a tare. He repaired it, Went to PT for about 5 months, and doing fine. Some pain is still there, but have appt. to see him in May. I have told others what a great doctor he is. Would use him again if needed.

I was 45 when I had my right hip replaced. Young by standards I suppose. So, I was nervous about doing the full replacement. I’m also a full time firefighter and I was not ready to give up the job quite yet. He worked with me for quite some time before we really had no other options. I absolutely could not say one thing bad about him or his awesome staff. The surgery went great. Had one issue with my knee from compensating for my hip for past 5-6 years and he was able to put a knee brace on and it worked like a charm. By the way, back at work on front line fire fighting in 9 weeks. Feels great still to this day almost a year later! Thanks so much for giving me my life back!

Dr. Justice is great. He takes time to explain everything in detail and doesn't rush in and out. He is also very caring. His nurse could do better in returning calls.

Dr. Justice is great. Most of your interaction will be with the office staff and medical assistant. This has been extremely frustrating for me. I have to call 2 to 3 times to have paperwork completed (that I pay an extra fee for them to do) or to get a prescription. More than once I have been left in pain because no one communicates with me about my medications. I am to the point now where I just want to be done and not have to continue dealing with his office staff.

Dr. Justice is very professional, friendly, and explains what options you might have very clearly. He was very highly recommended by my PCP , and I am glad I took the path I did. If there is ever a future need for a consultation or surgical procedure, he will be my first call.

My son had a year old torn pectoral muscle injury that Dr. Justice was able to correct. He was honest and upfront with us about the procedure and our expectations were exceeded. He is 3 months past surgery and doing great.
